Accident Firework Incident: Man Loses Four Fingers After Cigarette Ember Triggers Explosion
Picture courtesy of Khaosod. A 25-year-old man has suffered injuries after a firework exploded in his hand when a ember from a lit cigarette accidentally ignited the fuse, resulting in the amputation of four fingers. The incident occurred around 20:00 on 22 June in Moo 9, Sanam Chai subdistrict, Satuek district of Buriram province. Local rescue volunteers from Wang Krut Station responded swiftly to an emergency call reporting a serious fireworks injury. When rescue workers arrived at the scene, they found Mr Prayoon aged 25, writhing in pain with multiple fingers on his right hand shredded and bleeding profusely. The team provided immediate first aid before rushing him to Buriram Hospital, where doctors later had no choice but to amputate four fingers due to extensive bone damage and tissue loss. Ms Phut, 49, she was not present when the incident occurred but was informed by one of Mr Prayoon’s friends who brought him back home in a bloodied state. Alarmed by the extent of the injuries, she immediately called for rescue services. Ms Phut explained that Mr Prayoon and two friends had purchased fireworks from a local vendor with the intention of testing them ahead of the Buddhist Lent celebrations. “They just wanted to try out the colours and effects before using them properly during the festival,” she said. Mr Prayoon was reportedly holding the firework in his hand, intending to light it later, while smoking a cigarette. A stray ember from the cigarette is believed to have ignited the firework prematurely, causing it to explode in his grasp. The blast was so powerful it tore through his fingers, shattering bones and leaving his hand severely mutilated. Medical staff at Buriram Hospital confirmed that all four damaged fingers had to be surgically removed due to the severity of the injuries. Authorities are using this incident to reiterate the dangers of handling fireworks irresponsibly, especially in proximity to open flames such as cigarettes. Local officials are expected to issue further warnings as the Buddhist Lent period approaches, a time when fireworks are commonly used in celebrations. Adapted by Asean Now from Khaosod 2025-06-24 -
